Collision Center

Unfortunately had an accident on the 93 and need some repairs to the front end of my M3.

Does anyone know a good collision center in the Boston Area? I bought the car at Herb Chambers Boston but their collision center said the can't touch the car for 1-2 weeks most likely and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good place with a shorter wait.

Thanks.

Ugh. That sucks. I've used Today's Collision in Malden for my M4. They did a great job in a pretty reasonable turn around time. Just don't let them let them clean the interior when they're done--whatever cleaning product they used made my car smell like a baby wipe for months.

For what it's worth, they seem to be BMW Peabody's go-to recommendation for body work.

Thanks for the recommendation, will look into it if I end up getting the repairs done.

Apparently because the airbag deployed and the front bumper, lights, and hood need replacing (at least) Geico thinks it'll be a total (they're sending the inspector Thursday). Was surprised because other than the radiator everything looked okay. Car was a tank though, not a scratch on me. Just did Camber plates, MPHAS, fresh tires, and MPE in the last few months though so that money has set sail.

Oh man. Glad to hear you came out of it unharmed. But it REALLY sucks since you just got all those extra goodies installed. Hope it all works out for you.

Coming up from cape this afternoon, stop and go traffic, got rammed by a highlander 😡
Nice gouge in my bumper, I'm pretty pissed. Guess I'm in the market for a collision center too.

Anyone else can vouche for Sansossio?
Also do they provide loaners?

Phil @ Sansossio is great. He recently repaired the rear bumper on my 235 from a small rear-ending—fixed two holes from the other guys license plate bolts and sprayed Estoril (a difficult color to match). Perfect work, impossible to find any imperfections. He also painted some side skirts and installed a few pieces of vinyl—again, perfect work.

He's so easy to deal with—it feels like he really is there to help you out. Something missing in a lot of businesses.

Highly recommended.
